Monday night was the series finale of "Jon & Kate Plus 8" -- and Jon Gosselindid not disappoint.

Check out his "Best of Both Worlds" video clip from the show via TLC, if you can stomach it. (You have to scroll down and select it -- maybe get some Ed Hardy hand sanitizer first.) Or check out the first link above for the scoop and more. (Leave it to a New Jersey parenting blogger to give Jon what-for!)

Jon has "a place to go." Well, bully for him. And when he's fed up with the media crush, he just goes back to his "country place" where he can "chill."

Is that the country place where the children live?

The Ministry admits to starting out as a Kate-hater.

But everyone makes mistakes.
